ANTI BELIEVER
ATMOS‘s first 4 tracks kind an all killer, no filler suite of trendy dance music. Just like the album’s teasers promised, it’s a whistlestop tour of genres SHINee have mastered. Nonetheless, every tune has its personal distinctions to make sure the operating order doesn’t really feel repetitive.
Anti Believer brings the drama. Its title alone raised my eyebrows. It’s uncommon {that a} Ok-pop tune makes me wish to dive into its lyrics, however I had to try translations for this one. It seems the lyrics are obscure sufficient to go well with quite a few conditions. On the floor, it is a “love misplaced” idea, nevertheless it might simply as simply be affixed to non secular or societal anxiousness.
Musically, Anti Believer pulses with a sinister dance beat. It’s one of many easier tune constructions on the album, but the hook has a manner of rapidly working itself below your pores and skin. The blokes sound nice — glossy however emotive in all the precise locations. There’s an unimaginable moodiness to all the monitor — not the subdued mush so many present acts peddle however an precise pathos that bears out within the sonic panorama of the manufacturing.
